Dealing with Background Tabs in Chrome

Do you find it irritating when Chrome consistently opens new tabs in the background after a right-click selection, rather than bringing them into focus? If this is a recurring issue, the Tabs To The Front! extension is worth investigating.

The Default Chrome Behavior

Historically, Chrome’s default setting causes any new tab initiated from the right-click menu to open in the background. While occasionally this isn’t disruptive, frequent use of this method can become tedious, requiring repeated mouse actions to bring the tabs forward.

How Tabs To The Front! Works

The Tabs To The Front! extension streamlines this process. It eliminates the need for that extra mouse click to activate the newly opened tab.

As demonstrated above, with the extension installed, new tabs are immediately focused and ready for interaction.
